It could be that I'm getting bitten outside too and they just don't show up until morning... It's gotten too warm at night to leave windows open, but they could have gotten in a few weeks ago and made a home in here. Either way I say - stop biting my face!

I agree, they should know who is the 7am person, and everyone else gets a latter window.

yesterday we stopped by St. Vinny's - looking for smaller sized summer tee shirts and also a pair of jeans to measure progress- that is, something one size smaller than what I'm wearing now.

Came home with 3 t's, a dress, and the jeans for a whopping $8. I'm enamored of that place, and it has spoiled me - It's my way of leaving a smaller environmental footprint by recycling - I "buy" quality clothes, wear them a while, gift them back, and replace with a new wardrobe. Vinny and I have been exchanging stuff in a range of sizes 26+ through 8 for years. Vinny's gets $ for its other charities and I get to play dress up. Winner winner, chicken dinner.

Well, anyways, happy surprise- those jeans fit perfectly! Guess I'll have to go back and get a size smaller pants.

Liz, I'm lusting over the fresh sea food you will be enjoying tonight. Guaranteed you cant find anything like it here in Kansas.

Have fun with the fishies. So glad your shoulder will let you play!

I'm off to snorkel in tall grasses with staples and hammer in search of some older fencing needing a tacking along the hedge row.

No problem with warm weather here. Summer is upon us. Stay cool all friends west of me.

Great find at $8! I love shopping like that!

I tried thrift store shopping once or twice. Too discouraging for me. I'm such a weird size at any weight.... I find Target is about as thrifty as I can get.

I'm the same!!!

I've tried shopping Vinnies men's racks for DH. Way harder to find nice things. Am thinking Men hold onto their nice clothes long enough to actually wear them out and so things don't get to the racks.

My DH never gets rid of anything until there are holes.

Haha, I wish DH would get rid of it when there are holes! Holes do not deter him from keeping, and often wearing these garments.

I visit St. Vincent De Paul's several times a month. The one I frequent has a volunteer that sorts the books, Jan's Book Nook. More recent popular books are in the nook, like Gentleman in Moscow etc. I too regift many of them when I'm done reading. I love St. Vinny's good works and programs.
